Biographical / Historical

Nancy Crocker was born on February 20, 1956. A singer, actor, radio announcer, and writer, Crocker used her knowledge of sound and rhythm to create stories. Crocker's book, Betty Lou Blue, began when Crocker imagined what the largest feet in the world sound like. She wrote her first novel in 1993 but it was not published for over a decade.
